Chapter 189
Married at First Sight
âThat reminds me. I need to talk to you about something.â Serenity changed the subject at hand.
By the sound of her cheerful tone, Zachary could tell his silence did not drive her mad.
For some reason, it did not sit well with Zachary that she was not angry.
âWhat is it?â
âNana wants to stay at our place on the weekend. She told me to discuss it with you in case youâd say no. Youâre her grandson, so of course, youâre going to be okay with it.â Grandma May simply did not want to intrude on the coupleâs alone time.
Well, it was all in Grandma Mayâs head.
There was no alone time between her and Zachary as they were only a married couple by law.
They were busy doing their own thing during the day.
While at night, they slept on their own beds.
They would only engage with each other when there was a reason to. Other times, they would not have the chance or time to chat.
Serenity believed it would be a imagined of convenience, and now, it was exactly as she She had a little crush on Zachary, but because of Zacharyâs silence after she came to pick him up from work, the fire in Serenity was put out.It was best to abide by the six-month contract She would be single again five months later, Zachary really did not want his nana to come. Nana was a sly fox who loved to pull a fast one on her grandchildren.
Knowing that he and Serenity were merely husband and wife in name, Nana would stay over and make every effort to luck them into the same bed âWe have our things to do on the weekend None of us have time to keep Nana company. She might as well remain in her own house. Her sons and daughters-in-law are retired, so they can spend time with her.â
Listening to Zachary, Serenity tilted her head and looked at him.
It was no wonder Nana kept asking her to talk to Zachary about it instead of taking it upon herself to make the decision The guy preferred if his nana did not come to his place.
âDonât you want Nana to stay for a couple of days? Itâs not a long stay. Itâs for two days. Nana said that sheâll only be arriving in the afternoon if she does make it. I donât think itâs a big deal if Nana stays at our place She used to hang around my shop She can come with me to the shop if sheâs staying over âMr. York, sheâs your nana. Your grandmother.â
Zachary thought to himself, âDo you think Iâd marry you if Nana hadnât asked?â
Yet, he said, âIâm not saying Nana canât come. Alright now. Iâll call Nana to talk about this later.â
Serenity kept to herself for a while before she probed, âMr. York, is your relationship with Nana⦠Umâ¦
Not so good? Donât you think itâs a little quiet at our place? Itâll be livelier to have another person in the house.â
Nana was rather fun-loving.
Serenity believed Nanaâs presence would bring some life to the house, âI moved out to enjoy the peace and quiet.â
There was a pause before Serenity replied, âOkay then. You should talk to Nana You make the call.
âI still think itâs too quiet at our place. Nanaâs only going to stay for a couple of days if she comes. Mr.
York, can I get two dogs and two cats to join the family?â
Turning his head, Zachary glanced at her before moving his eyes back to the road. He said faintly, âDogs and cats canât speak the human language Plus, they wreck the house, shed fur, and defecate everywhere. I hate it. Of course, I have no problem with you having pets if you keep them locked in your room and want to see them roaming around the house.â Serenity was rendered speechless.
